DEBATE - MEDIA THRIVES ONLY ON SENSATIONALISM - AGAINST THE MOTION

        I respect very much the role of the media in our society; I think they can be very, very helpful. They serve as a very useful check, sort of a watchdog over the actions of the government, and I respect that.
  Alberto Gonzales observation is right. Honorable chairperson, distinguished adjudicators, fellow debaters and all my dear friends … Good morning! I strongly oppose the motion “Media thrives only on Sensationalism”
 In the world of today, media has become as necessary as food and clothing. It has played significant role in strengthening the society. Media is considered as "mirror" of the modern society, infact,it is the media which shapes our lives.

The purpose of the media is to inform people about current ,new affairs . 
The media is governed by righteousness and equity ,Media is in charge of :
1 information
2 education
3 entertainment
4 advertising
5 correlation of parts of society

     Society is influenced by media in so many ways. It is the media for the masses that helps them to get information about a lot of things and also to form opinions and make judgments regarding various issues! It is the media which keeps the people updated and informed about what is happening around them and the world. Everyone can draw something from it.

    No doubt, media has played significant role in making world a global village and to reduce the communication gaps amongst the people living in the far areas but unfortunately. 
Many scams were brought to public notice through media intervention, political parties are forced to take action against corrupt politician for the damage control. When a matter is overhyped it gets engraved in the mind of public and decision making gets easier. Media intervention exposes the antisocial elements such as moral policing , polarization of communities , scandals ..etc ..etc ..etc..
    I believe, the media identifies its responsibility and work sincerely and honestly, and  serves as a great force in building the nation
